Yesterday Sony Computer Entertainment surprised pretty much everyone by announcing the PlayStation Vita TV, that was almost immediately available for preorder in Japan. How did Japanese gamers react? Looks like they bought it in droves.

At the moment the Vita-powered microconsole is already sold out on Amazon Japan in both its incarnations (stand alone and value pack including a DualShock 3 controller and an 8 GB memory card).

Below you can check out a screencap of both offerings. If the initial impression is to be believed, looks like Sony has a winner here, at least in Japan. We’ll have to wait to see what the reaction in the west will be.

JoeTheBro said:Nice. It's been weeks and the 2DS still hasn't sold out! Vitatv>2ds confirmed!

ok biased is showing. I Bet you didn't kno there is NOOOOO 2DS in japan lol. Something selling out doesn't automatically mean it sold more too! look at pokemon bundles. they sold out in 2 hours, but it doesn't mean they outsold PS Vita TV cuz shipments might be much much less.... Come on Joe! B4 cracking on 2DS, you might want to watch wat you said...... CUZ YOUR WRONG
